Wandered out late morning and headed for Loch of Bosquoy. Lingered by The Shunan, the Coot all seem to have failed. Walked along the hawthorn hedge. Birded Bosquoy, not much of note.

Back over the road, east end of hawthorn hedge, a very bright wheatear flew up to a fence post. Except it wasn't. Looked with the bins, ......££$$&&** not much more to say.

It's a long time since I've found anything really decent birdwise. The drake Lesser Scaup, which was a fair while ago now, so this was especially welcome.

It lingered for an hour before drifting off south along the fence line, so unfortunately it didn't make the "from the garden" list.
